WaterPig Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I don't have experience with the pumps but there is a huge difference in rated power consumption between the 2 and they're both rated at 18000 l/h. 125W is equivalent to 5 big eheim canisters or almost 3 FX5s. but then again rated power consumption is not always the actual power consumption.

webmaster Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I prefer hailea over resun Most hailea pumps came with a 3 year guarantee as apposed to resuns 2 year (must mean something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pet_City Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Depends on what you are using them for. We ran the Haileas on all of our systems - 2000L systems, looking at a max 6m head height - however they are taken from a 1.5" squeezed to a 1" and have over 15 90deg angles to navigate not withstanding the one immediately from the outflow. Needless to say we work the hell out of them. We are getting about 3 years. The problem is - they run until they don't run. If the power goes out they don't turn back on again. When we inspect the impeller its usually imploded. If you aren't tearing them to hell and back, they are pretty good. And they run pretty quiet too. We are now trying the Aquael centrifugal pumps - they can be run inline or submersed. First one goes in tomorrow! We have used Laguna in the past before and they are also great pumps. Its just hard to get the head height needed without going inline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
